Condensate treatment: respect the environment, save costs

As efficient as the process may be, a compressor inevitably pro-duces more than compressed air alone. One of its by-products is a large volume of condensate, generally an emulsified combination of oil and water that poses a serious environmental risk. Only by treating this condensate in the right way, can we make sure it brings no harm to the environment.

Respect the environment

4 The unique OSD offers a condensate treatment package fully integrated into the compressor, reducing both in-stallation costs and complexity. Clean water is discharged from the compressor outlet drain valves whilst the sepa-rated oil is collected in a generously sized oil can.

4 The new patented OSC technology brings a whole series of new advantages to the market. These free standing units, with multi-stage oleophilic filtration, can separate all kinds of condensate from all compressor technologies, giving unparalleled performance and reliability for minimal maintenance.

Our clean and cost-efficient solution

If treated in the right way, condensate is nothing to worry about. The Atlas Copco range of condensate separators efficiently sepa-rate the oil from the water. The harmless water can be drained away and the oil disposed of in an environment-friendly manner. Based on our years of experience with air treatment products, we suggest only the equipment that is right for your setup.

OSD – a unique, high efficiency integrated package

The OSD is a complete condensate management system intgrated into the GA compressor. The unique device removes the oil from the discharged condensate, and with it the worries of polluting the environment and contravening strict environmental regulations.

The oil and water are separated through a process of de-emulsifi-cation and gravitational separation. Condensate containing fine oil droplets enter the coalescing filter which retains much of the oil. The semi-processed mixture then enters the water tank, where, due to the specific mass difference, the remaining oil separates from the water. The oil rises and flows through the oil outlet and into the oil can, whilst the clean water is discharged through a pipe terminated at the edge of the machine.

Monitoring and maintenance is simplicity itself. When the inlet pressure, which is clearly displayed on a gauge, reaches 2 bar, the easy access screw-on filter cartridge needs to be replaced. Typically this occurs once per year.

Benefits of an integrated solution are:

4 High efficiency separation for worry free conden-sate discharge (10 mg/l)

4 Performance independent of filter age4 No installation required, saving time and money4 Zero footprint, saving space and simplifying placing4 Minimal maintenance, reducing lifetime costs4 Simple, fast and clean cartridge exchange

With a separation performance of 10 mg of residual oil per litre of condensate, the OSD offers outstanding efficiency combined with minimal installation work and lowest running costs.

OSC – advanced technology for all compressed air condensates

Muffler

Activated carbon pellets

Expansion chamber

The new and extensive OSC range from Atlas Copco uses patented technology to separate all kinds of compressed air condensate. The multi-stage separation process, using both buoyant oleophilic filters and activated carbon, ensures excep-tional performance, long and known filter lifetime and trouble free operation.

1 No standing or stagnant water eliminates all potential health risks and requires less regular cleaning.

2 The unit does not rely on gravitational separation and is therefore insensitive to vibrations, shocks and splashes.

As such, performance is both better and more stable and there is no requirement to use electronic “no loss” drains up stream of the machine.

3 The discharge condensate contains so little residual oil, that it can be drained away without damaging the environ-ment or contravening strict pollution regulations.

4 The large capacity chambers reduce the risk that spillage occurs if the unit becomes blocked, or if there is a sudden increase in inlet flow.

5 The system is based on filtration rather than gravitational forces and weir separation – meaning that oil density is no longer a key factor.

6 No deration required for synthetic oil based condensates.

Meaning model selection is simplified and unit size is reduced for low capital investment.

7 The advanced oleophilic filtration media used ensure stable and reliable performance, extended activated carbon lifetime and can eliminate all bacteria with an optional treatment.

8 The simple but robust design enables easy installation with no special set-up and fast, easy and clean filter changeover.

9 The maintenance indicator accurately identifies when the filter needs to be changed, eliminating the need for special tests. The key benefits of this are:

4 No oil collection bottle required, so no chance to ruin previously separated condensate if system malfunctions

4 Multiple oil condensate can be easily separated4 Polyglycol condensate can be separated, although

some unit deration is necessary in order to main-tain filter lifetime

4 Most condensate emulsions can be separated

For assured performance and maximum maintenance intervals the specially designed OSC service kits should be used. In addition to the buoyant oleophilic and activated carbon bags needed for one year of normal operation, the kit includes inlet mufflers and diffusion filters

Atlas Copco also offers a full set of spare parts for each machine in the range, and a series of options for multiple installations and for operation in extreme climates.

Dedicated kits have been developed for condensate with high oil content. Specific kits are available for treating efficiently condensate containing glycol or silicon based oils.

OSC – benefits from the best technology

Complete reliability from total simplicity

1 Condensate enters through the mufflers and depressurizes in the expansion chamber.

2 The emulsified oil water mixture then enters tower A and seeps through the white oleophilic filter. The filter absorbs the oil but not the water.

3 The oleophilic filter floats on the water and absorbs any remaining oil from the surface.

– The additional weight of the oil causes the filter to gradually sink as it gets more saturated, which ensures that clean filter material is always in contact with the surface of the water.

– The indicator stick at the top of tower A shows the status of the filter; as the filter is consumed, the stick sinks.

– The filter has to be changed just before it’s fully sub-merged.

4 Significantly cleaner condensate flows from tower A to tower B.

5 Tower B contains a bag of activated carbon pellets which

absorb any residual oil from the condensate.

6 Clean condensate exits from tower B with almost no residual oil content, enabling it to be discarded easily and safely.
